Wrong Title Tag

    I am having a problem with the title tags on my WordPress blog. The title that it uses is from the last post in the list of previous posts on the homepage, instead of the current post.

    I have tried changing the <title>—-</title>. It was originally ‘<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>’ and no matter what I change it to it does the same thing. Even if I just have <title>Test</title> it will do the same thing.

    I have tried using some plugins, but they did not help either.

    Any ideas of what might be going on?

    What theme are you using? What’s your URL?

    The url is http://www.lidarnews.com. My email is gvr2003@comcast.net. My son is the one who is doing the work and he is not available, so I do not know the theme he is using. The issue is best seen when you click on one of the previous posts and then look up in the ribbon you will always see the tile does not match the post that is open and in fact is always the title of the bottom post in the list.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Your theme is “Compromise”. There is also no title displayed on the front page. You can try to

    1 – Deactivate plugins, and then activate one by one, to see if one of them is affecting the title display.

    2 – Switch to the Default theme, to see if this solves it.

    3 – Use the title code from the Default theme, if it worked after you switched
    <title><?php wp_title('&laquo;', true, 'right'); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
